也门胡塞反政府武装及其盟友的代表们表示，将参加经联合国斡旋在科威特举行的和平谈判。此前他们抵制和谈，以抗议据称亲政府军违反停火协议的行为。
胡塞反政府武装和也门前总统萨利赫所在政党的代表说，他们计划于星期三或星期四抵达科威特。
联合国曾争取星期一启动和谈，但由于只有也门政府代表团到场，只好决定推迟和谈。
宣布推迟和谈后，联合国特使艾哈迈德感谢也门政府致力于和谈，同时表示希望胡塞反政府武装不要错过结束也门暴力冲突的机会。
联合国秘书长潘基文敦促有关各方本着善意进行谈判，不要推迟和谈进程。
也门冲突已导致6400多人丧生，造成了一场人道灾难。
Delegations from Yemen’s Houthi rebels and their allies now say they will join U.N.-brokered peace talks in Kuwait, after staying home to protest alleged cease-fire violations by pro-government forces.
Representatives from both the Houthis and the party of former President Ali Abdullah Saleh said they planned to arrive in Kuwait Wednesday or Thursday.
The United Nations tried to launch the negotiations on Monday, but officially postponed the talks when only the government delegation showed up.
After announcing the delay, U.N. envoy Ismail Ould Cheikh Ahmed thanked the government “for its commitment” and said he hopes the Houthis do not miss the opportunity to put an end to the violence in Yemen.
U.N. Secretary-General Ban Ki-moon urged all parties to negotiate in good faith and to begin the talks without delay.
The conflict has killed more than 6,400 people and created a humanitarian disaster in Yemen.
